August 20, 2013
"In less
than nine months, we have now used more natural resources than what it takes
the planet 12 months to produce. For the remainder of 2013, we will be living
on resources borrowed from future generations.
This year Earth Overshoot Day—the approximate date human resource demands exceed nature’s budget—fell on August 20. Two days earlier than last year. In fact, since 2001, Overshoot Day has moved ahead by an average of 3 days per year."

We have a
choice, each and every day, in what we purchase, what we eat, do, how we behave
and what we are willing to talk about and the action we take.
